Leonardo Gutierrez steals by 1,000

On September 29, in the same opening match of the league, Peñarol de Mar del Plata had not fared well in the derby against Quilmes (68-64 home defeat), but Leonardo Gutierrez became the tenth player pass the barrier of 1,000 recoveries. The native of Marcos Juárez term with 999 last season, and the league began recovering two balls; currently totals 1,005. Despite not being a section of the game that stands out for average (1.5 per night this season, 1.1 in the total of his career) this becomes important to accumulate acceptable numbers for twenty years.

Another highlight is that Gutierrez is just 29 points to break the barrier of 13,000 in the LNB, which probably achieved within weeks.Matias Barmat (@worldhoopstats)
